Lyrics

It's only said to be kind, the time that you have with love You're never told, but you're loaned it It's a lie, the high that you have with love It feels like gold when you hold it And know it's sweet, to know it when it's gone, baby So why, why, why? Why would you be lovin'? Why would you be lovin'? Why would you be lovin'? Hey And, hey, why would you be loved? Mm, hey, why would you be loved? Now the world falls apart, it starts with their actin' up I wouldn't say it, but I blame them The bleedin' hearts, the arts and that other stuff All the same motivations will melt away Like snowflakes on a tongue, baby So why, why, why? Why would you be lovin'? Why would you be lovin'? Why would you be lovin'? Hey And, hey, why would you be loved? Mm, hey, why would you be loved? Mm, hey, why would you be loved? Mm, hey, why would you, why would you? Why would you play it all on somethin' as hollow as trust? (Hey) What if you gave it all, to find that it wasn't enough? (Hey) What if, under the gaze of all, you come short when the going gets rough? Why would you be lovin'? (Hey) Why would you be lovin'? (Hey) Why would you be lovin'? Hey (hey) And, hey, why would you be loved? (Ah) Mm, hey, why would you be loved? (Ah) They look for somethin' to be done for those that are most in pain What about me and my achin'? The scales rehung, the breakin' of yoke and chain What about me and my breakin'? And if you ain't for all, how could you try it all, baby? So why, why, why? Why would you be lovin'? Why would you be lovin'? Why would you be lovin'? Hey And, hey, why would you be loved? Mm, hey, why would you be loved? Mm, hey, why would you be loved? Mm, hey, why would you, why would you? Why would you play it all on somethin' as hollow as trust? (Hey) What if you gave it all, to find that it wasn't enough? (Hey) What if, under the gaze of all, you come short when the going gets rough? Why would you be lovin'? (Hey) Why would you be lovin'? (Hey) Why would you be lovin'? Hey (hey) And, hey, why would you be loved? (Ah) Mm, hey, why would you be loved? (Ah) Why would you be lovin'? (Hey) Why would you be lovin'? (Hey) Why would you be lovin'? Hey (hey) And, hey, why would you be loved? (Ah) Mm, hey, why would you be loved? (Ah) Mm, hey, why would you be loved? (Ah) Mm, hey, why would you be loved? (Ah)
